Registration Queue
Logic
Queues
Solve
We want to register students for the next semester. All students have a receipt which shows the amount pending for the previous semester. A positive amount (or zero) represents that the student has paid extra fees, and a negative amount represents that they have pending fees to be paid. The students are in a queue for the registration. We want to arrange the students in a way such that the students who have a positive amount on the receipt get registered first as compared to the students who have a negative amount. We are given a queue in the form of an array containing the pending amount.
For example, if the initial queue is [20, 70, -40, 30, -10], then the final queue will be [20, 70, 30, -40, -10]. Note that the sequence of students should not be changed while arranging them unless required to meet the condition.
⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note:
- The first line of the input is the length of the array. The second line contains all the elements of the array.
- The input is already parsed into an array of "strings" and passed to a function. You will need to convert string to integer/number type inside the function.
- You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases.

For the example discussed above, the input will be:
5
20 70 -40 30 -10

Your code needs to print the following to the standard output:
20 70 30 -40 -10

Visitors Count
Strings
Logic
Solve
A manager hires a staff member to keep a record of the number of men, women, and children visiting the museum daily. The staff will note W if any women visit, M for men, and C for children. You need to write code that takes the string that represents the visits and prints the count of men, woman and children. The sequencing should be in decreasing order. 
Example:

Input:
WWMMWWCCC

Expected Output: 
4W3C2M

Explanation: 
‘W’ has the highest count, then ‘C’, then ‘M’. 
⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note:
- The input is already parsed and passed to a function.
- You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases.
- If the input is- “MMW”, then the expected output is "2M1W" since there is no ‘C’.
- If any of them have the same count, the output should follow this order - M, W, C.

Test candidates on core iOS (Swift) Hiring Test topics

Swift Programming: Swift programming language is a powerful and modern language used for developing iOS applications. It provides a concise and expressive syntax, which makes code easier to read and maintain. Testing candidates on Swift programming ensures that they have a good understanding of the language and can write clean and efficient code.

iOS Basics (Swift): iOS basics in Swift covers the fundamental concepts and principles of iOS development. It includes topics such as creating user interfaces, managing application lifecycles, and utilizing built-in iOS features. Candidates with a strong grasp of iOS basics are equipped to build robust and user-friendly applications on the iOS platform.

Views and Controllers: Views and controllers are crucial components in iOS development. Views are responsible for presenting the user interface and receiving user input, while controllers handle the logic and behavior of the application. Assessing candidates on views and controllers ensures that they have the skills to design and implement well-structured and interactive interfaces.

Variables and Data Types: Variables and data types are essential concepts in programming. Understanding variables allows developers to store and manipulate values, while data types define the kind of values that can be stored. Testing candidates on variables and data types ensures that they are proficient in handling different data and can effectively manage memory resources in their applications.

Control Flow: Control flow refers to the order in which statements are executed in a program. It includes concepts such as conditional statements, loops, and branching. Evaluating candidates on control flow helps determine their ability to implement logical and efficient algorithms, ensuring that their code executes correctly and efficiently.

Functions: Functions are reusable blocks of code that perform specific tasks. They allow developers to organize their code and make it more modular and maintainable. Assessing candidates on functions ensures that they can write well-structured and efficient code, enabling them to solve complex problems and build scalable applications.

Arrays and Collections: Arrays and collections are used to store and manage multiple values. They provide a way to organize and manipulate data efficiently. Testing candidates on arrays and collections ensures that they can work with complex data structures, enabling them to handle large amounts of data in their applications.

Optionals: Optionals are a feature in Swift that allows for the representation of both a value and the absence of a value. They provide a safe and concise way to handle scenarios where a value may be missing or uncertain. Assessing candidates on optionals ensures that they have a solid understanding of handling optional values, reducing the likelihood of runtime errors and improving code reliability.

Classes and Objects: Classes and objects are fundamental concepts in object-oriented programming. Classes define the blueprint for creating objects, while objects are instances of classes. Evaluating candidates on classes and objects ensures they can design and implement well-structured and reusable code, fostering code reusability and maintainability.

Memory Management: Memory management is the process of managing computer memory resources to ensure efficient utilization and prevent memory leaks. It involves allocating and deallocating memory when needed, as well as handling reference counting and memory cleanup. Testing candidates on memory management ensures that they can write memory-efficient code, minimizing resource consumption and improving application performance.

Error Handling and Debugging: Error handling and debugging are essential skills for any developer. Error handling involves anticipating and handling errors that may occur during program execution, while debugging is the process of identifying and fixing issues in code. Assessing candidates on error handling and debugging ensures that they can effectively troubleshoot and resolve issues, ensuring the stability and reliability of their applications.

Networking: Networking is a critical aspect of many iOS applications, enabling communication with remote servers and APIs. It involves sending and receiving data over the internet and handling network-related tasks such as authentication and encryption. Evaluating candidates on networking ensures that they have the knowledge and skills to implement secure and efficient network communication in their applications.

Core Data: Core Data is a framework used for data persistence in iOS applications. It provides an object-oriented approach to managing and persisting application data, including support for data modeling, data storage, and query execution. Testing candidates on Core Data ensures that they can effectively implement data storage and retrieval, enabling them to build robust and scalable data-driven applications.

Testing and Debugging: Testing and debugging are critical phases in software development, ensuring the quality and stability of applications. Testing involves verifying that the application behaves as expected under various scenarios, while debugging involves identifying and fixing issues in the code. Assessing candidates on testing and debugging ensures that they can effectively validate and troubleshoot their applications, delivering high-quality and reliable software.

Yes, absolutely. Custom assessments are set up based on your job description, and will include questions on all must-have skills you specify. Here's a quick guide on how you can request a custom test.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

Does every candidate get the same questions?

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.
